Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A compelling mixture of manifesto and manual, Places for Strangers builds on the set of principles and attitudes that have long driven London-based mae Architects to advocate a new position on urban design and architecture, while also elucidating an approach to actually producing critically engaged design.Originally written for such newspapers as the Guardian or professional organizations such as the Architects' Journal, the essays featured here are polemic in their nature, aimed at illustrating the sociopolitical, ethical, and formal concerns that must be navigated in architecture today. Complementing the essays are contemporary analyses and revisitations of a number of mae's projects that serve to illustrate how the firm's core principles?themselves always in a state of renegotiation?can be enacted in actual designs and building projects. The result is sure to inspire creative new thinking about architecture and its place in contemporary society. The first book on London-based mae Architect's philosophy, vision and work. mae Architects is an up-and-coming British firm demonstrating an innovative, fresh approach to a diverse range of projects. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Das Londoner Architekturbüro mĉ architects llp wurde 2001 mit dem Ziel gegründet, sich städtebaulichen, sozialen und ökologischen Fragestellungen anzunehmen. Inzwischen gilt es als eines der dynamischsten und innovativsten Architekturbüros Grossbritanniens. Das Buch stellt die Arbeitsphilosophie von mĉ architects llp und beispielhafte Projekte in England, Norwegen und Dänemark vor. In einer Mischung aus Manifest und Handbuch versammelt es bewusst polemische Artikel, die der mĉ-Partner Alex Ely und der frühere mĉ-Architekt Michael Howe für The Guardian oder The Architects' Journal geschrieben haben. Zudem geben ein aktuelles Gespräch zwischen Ely und Howe sowie Bildmaterial zu den Projekten Einblick in ein grundsätzliches Dilemma: dass Architekten meist für unbekannte Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner planen und dabei ihre Visionen, ja Ideologien mit einem prosaischen Alltag verbinden müssen. Places for Strangers zeigt praxisnah und intellektuell reflektiert, wie innovativ Architektur werden kann, wenn nach den vielfältigen Einflüssen gefragt wird, die sie formt.

Add to baskethardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
